Thanks for that.  I rebased my work and found some bugs, so I'll be
posting an RFC V3 later tonight.

With the latest gstreamer and the rebase off Hans' work along with
some improvements to my code, fluster now runs the VP9...at least for
a while.  It doesn't technically finish because the power domain
appears to choke which causes a hang.  This was reported by Tim
Harvey, and with some of my updates, I can reproduce it now too.  :-(

At least I know I'm off to the right start on the VP9.
